Looking for "a Railroad.

An Athens special to the Atlanta Con-
stitution says that the Watkinsville peo-
pie are blue over the prospects of the Ma
con and Athens railroad. Mr.. Ashford,
a prominent citizen of that village, says
that a couple of gentlemen, who are deep
ly interested in the completion of the Nj a.
con road, decided that if the mountain
would not come to MahOmet. that Ma
homet would go TO the mountain. SO they
went over to Madison to find bow the road
was getting on. The road was no where
in the neighborhood OF Madison. No one
had seen it, and while a good deal had
been heard about it, the people did not be-
lieve much in it. The gentlemen con-
tnued their travels, and after four hours
travelling they came across the hands
fourteen miles, or more from Madison.
Occasional squads were found between
this point and Monticello. The contract
ors are not employing hands, and don't
seem TO be IN bury to get to NJ adison,
not to say anything about reaching Ath-
ems. Somehow or other the people are not
enthused on the subject, and many are of
the opinion that the road will not De built.

LONG AND SHORT HAULS.
GEN. ALEXANDER ON TIE IN
TERSTATE COMBIERCE BILL.

A Mistaken idea that Railroads Lose on
Long Rauls and Make on Short-How
Competitive Points in Georgia Will be
Benefited Under the Operation of
the New Lsw-Gen. AIexander's New
Book.
The rumOr published In Atlanta to the
effect that the Savannah shops OF the
Central railroad are to be removed to
Macon made Gen. Alexander smile when
he was told OF it yesterday. The state
ment Is absurd ON it's face. The Presi-
dent stated that nothing of the kind is
contemplated.
In speaking of the interstate commerce
bill, he remarked that the railroad men
cannot tell what it means. Maj. Albert
Fink, for instance, takes one view Of GER
tain provisions, Mr.. John Fink has a
different opinion on the same point, per
haps, and other railroad men look at it in
some other way.
STUDIED BY RAILROAD MEN.
The bill and its provisions are being
studied 10y all railroad men. While he
was In New ork last week the CentraPs
President discussed portions OF it with
other officials. The most important sec
ton to the railroads is that which relates
to the short and long hauls. That the bill,
as II reads upon Its face, breaks up COM
petition, all railroad men agree. That
provision is the one that they particular
ly object to. Its effect upon the Central
railroad has already been shown in the
MORNING NEWS. The road will be cut
off from the Mobile and New Orleans
business, but will gain on traffic to local
points.
Gen. Alexander holds that apparent
discrimination does not injure, but really
benefits, the very places that seem to be
Disseminated againSt.
PREVALENT MISTAKE.
1t is a prevalent mistake, saws the
President, that the railroads are losing
money on the long hauls and making it
up on the short. AS matter of fact,
whatever is received for the long haul
above additional COST is extra, and goes
that far to help the road and all the coun-
try along it. The city which receives a
rate is not the only point which Is bene-
fted, because the city only receives a
oeneht in trust on its way to local
producers and consumers. Fortunately
for competitive points in Georgia they
will have the advantage of part water
rate from New York, and in the element
or cost SIX miles of ocean are recKoned as
scarcely equal to one mile OF land.
GEN. ALEXANDER's BOOK.
In a book on "Railway Practice and
Suggested Reforms" which has just been
published by Gen. Alexander, he SAYS
that there are too many ways in which
rebates may be hidden and covered. for
legal measures allowing exemplary dam
ages to bring legal relief within the reach
of an injured party. The more severe
the penalties the harder will be the
proving OF the Offense. a mere verbal
promise may be given and a private
account kept, no money being paid until
all danger of suspicion has passed or un.
til action would be barred by limitation.
Adding penalty for the receiver of a re-
bate as well as for the giver VIII only
make rebates more secret than before.
